the only way to root without loosing data is to do it via ..SOFF NOHTCDEV process ...guide link in my signature

make sure to read per-requisites twice!!!..mainly backup the sdcard completely ..and make sure to remove back cover before starting the controlbear process (required for wire trick )

also ..to revert back (in case tired of wire trick) ..only follow the troubleshoot point #4 from the guide .

check troubleshoot point #3 for wire trick tips .

use the one click root tool from the same guide ..once the soff is done ..(then you can install busybox installer and then update the busybox binaries ..you can change the superuser app ..the provided one is superuser but the popular one is supersu)

and lastly good luck :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bustabob454:
Ok so this is my second Note 2. I am not new to rooting or anything. The first note 2 I had it was really simple, this one is giving me problems. I wasn't sure what software it was on so tryed the first method for unlocking the bootloader. And now Im getting this message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again". I have tryed to restore it to stock via the methods stated in this forum http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2024207 and its failing at sbin or whatever. The phone will go back into download mode but it fails everytime I try to restore it. I am at a loss here. Please help (p.s I try the 2nd way to unlock the bootloader, seeing as how it might be on the new ota, it still didn't work. Thanks in advance!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bustabob454:
Ya so I traded the first one via craigslist for a very good deal I couldn't pass up. With that being said I was not aware there was software update for the note 2 so I didn't check the software version because updates are far and few ...... Thanks for your comment douchebag it really helped! its people like you who are ruining xda. I asked a simple question, I have fixed it via trial and error.... THANK YOU dmonger11b for a solution and not a leaving a negative comment!

I don't know. Maybe sending me a PM telling me to go @#$# myself, in addition to what you said to me in quote one. All over you bricking your phone because you were too lazy or stupid to check the about phone?

I don't know, man. Your story is shaky - at best. Good luck. Heard droidstyle has a guide that will fix darn near anything. Heard it fixed an iphone once.....heard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bustabob454:
Well honestly some people need to get over themselves let alone "senior" members like yourself...if I knew the answer and if i was too lazy or stupid how did I figure out to come to xda and ask a simple question. Why would my story be shaky? I tryed to explain my problem as good as I could..what is the purpose of making up lies.haha If anything that would only hinder my quest to find a solution.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
You didn't check to see the software version of your phone before you went and grabbed a file that modifies your phone.

Did you ever stop for a second and think "wait a min..."

Google "alternate restore xda".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bustabob454:
Ok the first note 2 I had was so easy root and then unlock...I didn't remember exactly what I did when It came to the note 2. even though I read through the instructions this most recent time. I know especially with an expensive phone like the note 2 to be very careful. I knew eventually I would figure it out and I would get some help after reading through the many forums on xda. I took for granted how easy it was and thats why I temp. bricked my 2nd note 2. This 2nd note 2 is working fine on eclipse based on the latest ota now. Sorry for being an ass, but I was just trying to solve a frustrating problem, like the ones Im sure you have come across.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
Understood. We can move on. We're good.

I believe Kintwofan will come on here shortly and say "use the alternate restore zip". I wasn't trying to humiliate you. I wanted you to remember what you did so you don't do it again. I bet you'll always check 'about phone' now, right? Very important, my friend.

Hi. I tried to get help direct from Phoenix ROM Thread but no one helped me soo far. I'm running phoenix 6.7 and I can't get multi window to work properly. All stock apps works fine but every other app I add won't work. It doesn't want to split windows to two parts. It happened from v 6.0, 6.5 and 6.7. I did super wipe and etc. v 5.0 works just fine.

Is it just me or NFC on cm10 only turns on screen but doesn't turn it off?( by a auto sleep case) Tested working on stock though
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbh369:
It isn't nfc, it is a magnet in the cover, and yes, known issue, it doesn't work to turn off.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zpjj:
oh okay.thanks for confirming
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RALIR:
It is not clear to me if the auto sleep/wake function is strictly a hardware phenomena, relying on the magnet(s) on the case or if it is a software/hardware combination. Almost right after my HD+ upgraded to 2.0.6 and I rerooted using CWM 10, I lost complete functionality of auto sleep/wake from my Poetic Hardback case. Thinking that it was a failure of the case, I had it replaced. With the new one, the auto sleep/wake sometimes works and sometimes it does not.

As I indicated in another post, what I also noted was that when I manually turn it on, the Nova Launcher that I use sometimes does not turn on the widgets. In addition, sometimes, the widgets come up with simply a place holder asking to "tap to update the widget".

I do not know if the mechanics of the auto wake step is different from that of the manual "on" step.

Best Regards,

Is this even technically possible. I dont know enough about the two networks to know.

Also does this tablet allow wifi hotspot.

I have an itchy mouse finger to order one
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arda99:
The tablet is unlocked and you can use a tmobile micro sim card on it, however, I'm not sure if Tmobile's AWS band is supported. In worst scenario, if AWS is missing and you're not in a refarmed 1900MHz area, you might get only edge speed on it.

easier and cheaper solution: buy the wifi model and use your phone as hotspot.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lp894:
Out of all the questions about whether T-Mobile AWS bands are present...I never saw an answer so I went to the FCC...according to them...no. No testing was done for it and you can see that here at the FCC filing page. It uses WCDMA Bands II/V so unfortunately no go.

I was too hoping it was like the Nexus 7 and had T-Mobile bands. I actually had no idea that the Nexus 7 HSPA+ and LTE are one in the same device until I bought the LTE version from Fry's and found out it works with my T-Moible HSPA+ sim card lol

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] qnz_78:
I bricked my phone and it seems that the fix is replacing the motherboard. Since it seems I may be going down that road I was just wondering if it would be possible to upgrade my regular S3 to an LTE S3? What parts would I need and where to source them?

(I know this sounds silly but Im a big car guy and whenever you blow your stock engine its an excuse to get a bigger one hehe, Im just thinking if this is the same with the S3 having a "better" version)

Flame away if this isnt possible :D
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] archibald_schlick:
AW: [Q] Uprade regular S3 to LTE S3?

I think it is possible. But when you change to i9305 you will loose the possibilities of using different and official CM roms or other AOSP roms. Most of the custom firmwares available for i9305 are Samsung based.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] DjeMBeY:

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] johnbyebye:
The OP meant exchanging the motherboard with one from the i9305.

It's possible provided the setup is the same and the screw locations are the same.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] DjeMBeY:
Yeah, if screws and connectors on motherboard are the same... I don't think so but not sure tho ;)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Rekoil:
You're not wrong in your assumption. But I think the biggest problem would be fitting it in the case, in order to make phones as thin as the Galaxy S3, enormous efforts go into making sure the motherboard *just* fits in, and assuming the non-LTE models motherboard is exactly the same shape as the LTE model is a little silly in my opinion. In all honesty I think OP would be better off just not buying a new motherboard and instead just buying a new phone. The Nexus 4 comes to mind... yeah you heard me! Flame away! :p
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] DjeMBeY:
This is exactly what I meant, you won't be able to fit i9305 motherboard in i9300 casing, simple as that. There's only one cheaper solution, buy i9305 with broken screen and swap it.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Rhadamanthus:
If you're thinking of literally removing a faulty SoC off your I9300 board and replacing it with the I9305 equivalent:

No. Don't do it. That's the worst idea I've heard in years.

If you're thinking of using an I9305 motherboard as a replacement for your I9300 board:

I started writing a very long post here about why you can't use most of the I9300 internals, but honestly it's neither interesting nor worth the bother to type.

In short, here is a list of things you can use from the I9300:

-Cameras.

-Battery.

-The rear outer plastic case,

-Volume/power switches.

-Proximity sensor.

-Vibration motor.

-Screws, gaskets, etc.

-Assorted minor components which didn't spring to mind.

You can't use the frame, or the antenna. You might be able to re-use the display, screen, and touchscreen controller; but have fun trying to remove the former two from the frame without damaging them or rendering them unusable. Heat guns are out, for a start.

Compared to buying a new I9305, you won't save much money, if any, and it might conceivably cost more to get all these things separately. It would also take you a lot of time, which carries its own cost.

Believe it or not, portable electronic devices bear little resemblance to cars.

Dude, you're annoying now. I've got 15yrs experience as mobile phones maintainer and I know what I'm saying. It's not about size and screws only ffs!!

Hi all,

I have an ainol elf running cm 10, and everything seems nice and fast except youtube keeps crashing whenever I try to play a video.

Im trying to figure out whats wrong, but cant really get any information. using alogcat to view the logcat doesnt show up anything. I dont see the device in adb when connected to a pc, and Im also not seeing any unknown devices (ie I assume that means the drivers are loaded). The debugging is enabled on the tab, and I see the USB Debugging notification icon.

Im a bit lost as to how to proceed from here.

1. Anyone know of a reason why the latest youtube from play would crash?

2. Anyone know how I can get the crash recorded in the logcat either via something like alogcat or via adb?

3. Anyone know why the device is not showing up on my pc via adb?

Thanks in advance.
